..or Fate?-Cont'd

We are victims of chance. Hence we ask why? How God Zeus may see from Olympus is like God who is the Ultimate Reality. He doesn't have to ask questions as we. He is omnipotent. Yet being ultimate reality he doen’t have to change since any change means he didn’t get it right the first time. Oh no! That would be impossible. This we may be certain: he is not going to change things for you or for another.
Why Athens must fall or Sparta should come to power have their reasons. Athena the goddess of wisdom is unconcerned since man belongs to homo sapiens( the wise ones) he must set right where he messed up. It is his look out and responsibility.
We humans create history ever so little be our part in it. With our way of living and work of our hands, we weave warp and woof of it. We all have our energy levels and how we spend it create waves: we give little push and little there. We live our lives but that connect with other events. Some clever fellow like Themistocles ride on the wave but may cause greater damage than we can. Like Bush or Putin and the laws they enforce hold greater damage or some good (whichever way you want to look at it). Had not Bush gone into a war so ill prepared think of 3000 US soldiers who would have been spared of untimely death? Or so many Iraqi civilians killed everyday. These are all chance. Where did it begin? One will have to go back in time. No one may exactly see the real reason because the present needs all the attention.
